Event summary
Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the Triple Crown Trot 5K, taking place on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at the stunning Ashford Stud! This chip-timed road race offers a unique opportunity to run through the heart of horse country, where you'll be inspired by the legacy of Triple Crown champions like American Pharoah and Justify. The race route winds you through the picturesque grounds of Ashford Stud, from the historic office and stallion barn to the foaling barn, with yearlings frolicking in the paddocks along the way.
Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual walker, this event is perfect for all experience levels.

Best of all, all proceeds benefit the Woodford Humane Society, making every step you take a stride towards helping animals in need.
